About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the highway right-of-way bond actually covers

A highway right-of-way bond is a restoration and compliance guarantee to the county. Montgomery County lets you cut, bore, or place facilities within a county highway right of way — and in exchange wants a financial backstop that you'll restore the road to standard and follow the permit conditions.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Montgomery County (the obligee). If you leave the right of way unrestored or in violation of the permit, the county can recover its repair costs against the bond.

The county sets the amount on your permit, usually scaled to the work. The bond is priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — enter the figure and apply to see your exact price.

Montgomery County — highway right-of-way permit requirementMontgomery County requires this surety bond as a condition of its highway right-of-way permit; the bond amount and terms are set by the Montgomery County engineering / highway department. We have not cited a specific ordinance number here because the amount is set per permit rather than by a fixed statutory citation — confirm the required amount on your Montgomery County permit.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Montgomery County highway right-of-way bond?The bond is priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, and your exact price appears at the application. The amount itself is set by Montgomery County on your highway right-of-way permit. Enter that figure at the application.
Do I pay the full bond amount?No. The premium starts at $100 and is a small fraction of the bond amount, which is the surety's maximum liability to the county if you fail to restore the right of way — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond?The standard highway right-of-way bond issues right after payment — many contractors finish the application and have the executed bond in the same sitting. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Is there a credit check?No hard credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
Where do I file it?With Montgomery County, alongside your highway right-of-way permit. We issue the executed bond ready to submit so the county can release your permit.
